متن کاملThe “Rare” or “Non-LCH” Histiocytic Disorders in Childhood: A Brief Overview
Diseases of the monocyte, macrophage and dendritic cell system are referred to as histiocytoses. Based on improved understanding of their pathobiology and molecular background histiocytoses have been recently re-classified into five groups. Nevertheless, for practical reasons the histiocytoses are grouped into: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (the most common entity), hemophagocytic lymphohistioc...

The case has been studied by light microscopy, immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy and confirms that this sub-group has rather uniform characteristics. Observations on the possible origins of the vacuoles ...
متن کاملFollicular dendritic cell sarcoma of lymph node--a rare entity.
Follicular dendritic cells (FDC) are non-lymphoid, non-phagocytic accessory cells in the immune system that are essential for antigen presentation and germinal center reaction regulation. These cells are CD21+, CD35+, CD1a- and S100 protein +/- and they show desmosomes ultrastructurally. The most commonly involved sites by FDC tumors are lymph nodes but may arise at a variety of extranodal site...
متن کاملPrimary Pulmonary Lymphoma and Synchronous Cecal Adenocarcinoma: A Rare Occurrence
In the era of extensive imaging and increasing indications for performing PET-CT scans, the recognition of synchronous tumors may be greater than before. However, the majority of these tumors are seen to occur in the same organ system, likely because of sharing similar pathogenic mechanisms. Synchronous lung cancers of similar or differing histologies have been reported. Primary pulmonary lymph...
